EU Leaders to Boycott Hungary-Hosted Meetings
In a significant political move, the European Commission has announced that top EU officials will not attend informal meetings hosted by Hungary. This decision comes during Hungary’s tenure of the EU’s rotating presidency.
The boycott is a direct response to a series of meetings conducted by Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban, which have caused discontent among European partners.
